      2016 was an absolute shit show on Reddit. It was a dogfight between the Bernie Bros and the Trumpers until Bernie got knocked out of the primaries then knocked off Reddit by CTR. Then it was a dogfight between the ShillDawgs and the MAGAts with the t_d’ers eventually coming out on top because of their willingness to endlessly game the Reddit algorithm.

            I remember a friend of mine had a pic of herself stolen and someone slapped a caption on it saying something like “people tell me I look like Ariana Grande” and it was uploaded there. I heard about it and then a few months or years later saw it got reposted. Absolutely insane shit.
